July 2003 June 2003 June 2003 June 2003 June 2003 June 2003 June 2003 Stakeholder Interview URBITRANR EPORT URBITRAN Prepared to Connecticut Department of Transportation S ubmitted by Urbitran Associates, Inc. New Canaan Branch Only New Canaan was represented for the New Canaan branch, as Stamford did not participate. New Canaan According to the first selectman of the town, the agreement for Talmadge Hill and New Canaan stations are very straight-forward and work well. At Talmadge Hill station, CDOT owns only the platform, while the rest of the station area, e.g. the surface parking, is owned and maintained by the town. New Canaan station is owned by CDOT, as are the immediate parking facilities. The feeling is that the station and parking areas at New Canaan station, recently reconstructed, are well maintained. The town was concerned about liability issues and responsibilities for some activities and areas. As an example, the town evidently cleans the platforms while CDOT maintains them; sometimes the distinction between the two seems blurred. More importantly, the town feels that MNCR does not keep the track bed clean. With the new high platforms, more trash is collecting than in the past. There are also spikes, and ties left behind. Taxi activity on-site is an issue to the town. While the town can control activity, they do not feel that it is working well. They would like some help from CDOT’s compliance division for complaints and inspections. There is a dispatcher on site and they are hoping to see some improvement in the near future. To control who can pick-up at the station, the town has instituted rules regarding vehicle color and identifying name, pictures of the driver in the vehicle, etc. The town was complimentary of Carl Rosa and his responsiveness to their needs. The state spends most of its money on maintenance and operations, and will participate in some minor capital projects. The state recently paid for and constructed a new shelter at Talmadge Hill. The feeling is that it may be time to construct a new station at Talmadge Hill, with a full length platform and overhead protection. They cited West Redding and Wassaic as models. They would like CDOT to stay in the loop regarding station operations, and would like the state to inspect the stations on a regular basis. Their basic position is that unless CDOT is unhappy, they are not, and they do not feel any change in procedures is needed. They like having local control over day-to-day activities and feel they can be more responsive to the local community. They are concerned about parking issues if the state were to take over, specifically that lots now designated for New Canaan residents only would be open to everyone. Parking is the number one problem; by the 6:20 AM train all the meters are occupied, and the remaining parking is restricted to town permits. They give out about 2 permits per space. All spaces are generally filled by 8:30 AM. Talmadge Hill has 91 meters for general use, and the rest of the lots are permit controlled. The town is considering a plan to deck the “lumberyard” lot; one of the issues is that if CDOT helps in the financing of the deck, then the spaces would be open to non- residents. Local residents have fought any expansion at Talmadge Hill; better striping may provide an additional 70 spaces in the multi-tiered lots. 28 Customer Opinion Survey URBITRANR EPORT URBITRAN Prepared to Connecticut Department of Transportation S ubmitted by Urbitran Associates, Inc. Task 1.2:Technical Memorandum Customer Opinion Survey New Canaan Line New Canaan The response rate of 34% at the New Canaan Station was excellent. Of all respondents, 92% rode the train daily and an additional 5% rode at least once per week. Commuters made up 93% of customers surveyed, and 96% of respondents traveled during the peak periods. Of the respondents that parked at the station, 69% had parking permits at the time of the survey, and of those without permits, 41% were on a waiting list. Although the male to female ratio among surveyed customers has been high at most stations, the 86% male population is somewhat higher at New Canaan. The fact that 93% of responses were from customers aged 25-64 is not surprising given the typical profile of the work commuter. At New Canaan the remaining 7% were over 65 years of age. Finally, personal incomes were extremely high at this station; 94% reported salaries above $100,000, and the remaining 6% were above $75,000. As New Canaan is a recently refurbished station, it follows that customer ratings for the various parking and station elements should be fairly positive. In fact, ratings for the different aspects of the station at New Canaan were among the most favorable in the entire survey. In fact, only 2 of the 39 elements included in the (ease of passenger drop-off and parking security) were rated ‘fair’ or ‘poor’ by more than 50% of survey respondents. Furthermore, the percentages of ‘excellent’ ratings were quite high, and every element was noted to have improved by at least half of respondents. New Canaan respondents rated the elements at the station the highest on the New Canaan Line for the station building, amenities and platform elements. New Canaan change ratings were the highest on the New Canaan Line for all 4 categories of elements. The parking facilities at New Canaan did receive ‘fair’ or ‘poor’ ratings from at least a quarter of respondents for many of the different categories and the only 2 elements that were rated negatively by the majority of customers were included within the parking category. These were parking security (52% negative) and the ease of car or bus passenger drop-off (57% negative). Security remains a noteworthy complaint at many stations, although 71% of those who commented did indicate improvement at New Canaan. Parking maintenance, pathways to station, stairways and handicap accessibility were all rated with 80% approval or higher. Stairways were rated the highest of the parking elements with 92% satisfaction. Overpasses and underpasses do not exist at the New Canaan Station. Pathways to the station had the highest actual number of positive marks (80). Figure 249 shows how New Canaan respondents felt about the parking situation. Connecticut Department of Transportation 225 Task 1.2:Technical Memorandum Customer Opinion Survey Figure 249: New Canaan Station Parking Ratings Parking Ratings 120 100 80 Poor Fair Good 60 Excellent Responses 40 20 0 Pathway(s) to Entrances Parking Lot Stairways Parking Exits Parking Parking Handicap Parking Parking Ease of Car or Underpass Overpass St at io n Pavement Maintenance Availability Sign age Accessibility Lighting Security Bus Passenger Condition Drop-Off Attribute The station building received very favorable ratings; only the availability of seating prompted ‘fair’ or ‘poor’ ratings from more than a quarter of customers surveyed, and this too was seen to have improved recently. Ninety-eight percent of respondents were pleased with the overall condition of the station. Figure 250 describes the ratings of the station building in New Canaan. As was the case at most stations, absence of graffiti received the highest percentage of positive ratings (100% in this case). Eight of the 12 building elements received positive ratings exceeding 90%. The lowest rated element (seating availability) still received 63% favorable marks.

Figure 251 displays the amenities ratings in New Canaan. The news/magazine stands were rated positively by 88% of respondents, making it the highest rated amenity. Bus drop-off/pick-up was rated positively by 61% of respondents, yet it was the lowest rated amenity. Figure 251: New Canaan Station Amenities Ratings Station Amenities Ratings 120 100 Poor Fair 80 Good Excellent 60 Responses 40 20 0 News /Magazine Stand A vailability of Tras h Cans Phones Taxi Stand Concession Stand Bus Drop-Off/Pick-Up Attribute Figure 252 describes the platform situation in New Canaan. All of the platform elements were rated at 70% or higher satisfaction. In fact, all but 2 elements were rated above 90% positive. Ninety-nine percent of respondents (all but 1 person who rated it ‘fair) rated the overall condition of the platform favorably. Overall condition was the highest rated element. The working condition of the public address system was the lowest rated platform element with a full 73% approval. Connecticut Department of Transportation 227 Task 1.2:Technical Memorandum Customer Opinion Survey Figure 252: New Canaan Station Platform Ratings Platform Ratings 120 Poor 100 Fair Good Excellent 80 60 Responses 40 20 0 Overall Condition Platform Maintenance Cleanliness Platform Lighting Shelters Handicap Acces s ibility W orking Condition of Public Address System Attribute Customer appreciation of the rehabilitation of New Canaan station appears quite evident, both in the proportion of favorable ratings and the number of customers who indicated an improvement for the various elements rated in the survey.
